5062, SA 5156, SA

Postcode 5062 and postcode 5156 are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different characters. Postcode 5062 is more urban and active, where 45.8% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher and 18.7% of homes are rented. In contrast, postcode 5156 is much more residential and home-focused; 98.0% of its dwellings are separate houses, and 90.4% of homes have three or more bedrooms. Life in postcode 5062 is also more walkable, with over half of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services, while no homes in postcode 5156 have that same access.

Both areas share a very similar typical weekly household income of around $2,200. They also have nearly identical shares of people providing unpaid care and people living with long-term health conditions. While they share these basics, the gap in educational attainment has widened since 2011, and the difference in housing types has grown as well.
